Why not store them properly for starters so that they don't rot down and perhaps hire them out for events, to towns and villages in the area. At least some money might be recouped!

I reckon I could fit one in my back garden, it would make a nice little summerhouse.

Pop up roadside Finnish Saunas ? Examples of Libdem "Art in the community" ? Alternative accommodation for Cirencester Town Council to reduce the tax burden on rate payers ?

What a waste of tax payers’ money. More than £30,000 I understand. The Lib Dem Councillors, who authorised this wanton spending, will never be able to recoup all that money back.

They will recoup it they have stuck the rates up your going to pay ! "Cirencester mayor Joe Harris described it as “good value for money” while Cllr Margaret Rickman hailed it “a prudent budget”. Cllr Deryck Nash said that the1.3 per cent rise was reasonable in comparison to the national average of around four or five per cent." The council’s total budget for the year 2014/15 is £840,550 with £65,000 allocated for projects in and around the town. So look out for more half witted projects ,probably costing more than £65,000. Someone must have voted for this lot ?

Ask the Town Council how much they have valued the sheds in their accounts so we can really see how much money they have cost the tax payers of Cirencester. I am sure they sheds are not worth much now and will probably need major repair before they can be used again.

Why not give the Christmas Market another try, but do it properly no fancy plastic skating rinks or no road closures. All the huts facing inwards with stalls in the middle, on the church side of the market this would create more atmosphere and redirect the traffic to two way up and down the Corn Hall side.
